Testimonials What MPI-CAC event attendees are saying 2012 Summer Networking Event at Wrigley Field "Great out-of-the-box location and experience brought out so many planner members that I haven't ever met at an MPI event. It would be fantastic to do more events like this! I couldn't believe how many people attended! Nice Job MPI!“ 2012 Summer Educational Program and Networking at Navy Pier "I found this event to be extremely fascinating and worth my time…The venue was perfect and the food and service were great. The set-up on the rooftop was great, very casual and conducive to networking. I even spoke to some Chicagoans who were not aware there was a rooftop at Navy Pier. Great way to showcase the space. I walked away from the event very inspired and in awe of the amount of effort and collaboration it takes to put on an event like NATO. Thank you for offering this education event- it was fantastic!"
